As reported by Bloomberg, the size of coke cans will be cut from 355mL cans to 330mL cans in order to reduce costs of production. Price of coke will still remain the same, however. In doing this, Coca-Cola is effectively passed the cost of increasing fuel and raw materials prices onto us the consumers and me, the vending machine.

:<

Now hopefully, Coca-Cola has considered other things before this reduction. Like, is the current 355mL can at the optimal aluminum/coke ratio? Of not, would reshaping the can help reduce costs? I mean if they considered thing such as this (we all know just because a corporation is large, it does not necessarily mean they make the best decisions), then fine. I’ll go along with their ploy.

And because I’m such a freak, I got into a “discussion” about weather or not the new can has a higher aluminum surface area/volume of coke raito compared to the 355mL can.

Well I read the whole damn thing and all I got out of it was
(WARNING SPOILERS AFTER THE BREAK)

itsubun :
Shikumaru’s jounin teacher died. Orochimaru is dead. Jiraiya is dead. The series started off with the death of the 4th.

Fuck :(

(if this is breaking my current theme… well it should be fixed soon!)

Actually, I’m just testing large images with my new theme that should, with luck, be up by next weekend. Its a wider theme so wanted to test out some stuff.

And Jet Li? Augh I hate him and yet, I like him. Probably 8 years ago, he really annoyed me. I don’t know why! Every… single… thing about him annoyed me, from Romeo Must Die all the way up to Unleashed. In recent years though, I’ve grown to accept him more, especially after watching Hero and Fearless.

Anyways, this joint collaboration between Chan and Li was rumored back in what? 2002? When I heard Chan and Li had a movie together I decided I was going to watch it, I didn’t even know what the movie was called or what it was about. I was going to watch it (secretly hoping Jackie Chan will kick Jet Li’s ass).

So things I noted during the movie:

• When Jackie Chan started speaking English I had Rush Hour flashbacks (you know, Chris Tucker assumed Chan didn’t know English) and I love how everyone in ancient fairytale China can speak English.
• Drunken boxing cause Chan was pretty cool to watch, and he fits the role so well cause he actually does look kinda drunk when he smiles.
• Li has some craaaaazy ass laugh (for those of you who have watched, I’m talking about the part after he fights Chan).

Its a shame the story was so weak, a Chan and Li movie could of been EPIC. Totally EPIC. I only went to watch this for the Chan vs Li fight. If not for those two, I probably wouldn’t of even given this movie a second thought (maybe unless they casted Stephen Chow instead of Jet Li, just maybe). But you know what? Even though the plot had more holes than a piece of swiss cheese , it’s an enjoyable movie if you forget about the plot. Just switch off your brain and enjoy the ride.

Kinda like watching Die Hard, but instead of explosions and crap you get some kung-fu!

Maybe it’s the fact that Zero no Tsukaima and Shakugan no Shana were both produced by JC Staff, or the fact that Louise and Shana are both voiced by Rei Kugimiya and Saito and Yuuji are voiced by Satoshi Hino, but I found myself comparing ZnT to Shana wayyy too nuch … so much that it had become a huge distraction while watching. I swear, sometimes I half expected Louise to burst out yelling “URUSAI! URUSAI! URUSAI!” ~_~;;

URUCHAI! URUCHAI! URUCHAI! URUCHAI!
BAKA! BAKA! BAKA! BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!

Although I may find both of the shows mentioned above boring and lacking in action, for some odd reason I can’t seem to tear myself away from them because … well I don’t really know why to be honest! Maybe because Shana has Shanatan parodies; it made sitting though season 1 worth it. Zero no Tsukaima was not very memorable for me, nothing really stood out. The villains were lackluster and kinda stupid (LIKE OMG I CANT TELL WHO IT IS BEHIND THE MASK LOL).

Oh and did I mention Shana-tan parodies > all?

The only thing that Zero no Tsukaima has going for it is the fat that the male lead is not a spineless wimp with a brick for a brain *cough* Yuuji *cough*

Zero no Tsukaima:
Here’s 5 Coke Zeros out of 10 for being a half-decent show; boring yet still somewhat entertaining. Lets hope the second season is better =/

On a happier note, I’m glad the “I’m an angry-jealous-loli” v.s. “Brick-for-a-brain” arc of Shana II has ended.

I feel your pain Keisaku

Number 10 : Naruto Eps 31-32

Yeah, even though I’ve seen it twice now, its still funny… can’t wait till Sai shows up next week =D

Number 9 : Hayate Eps 29-30

Butler fights make me lol

Number 8 : Hayate Ep 29

Animal cruelty is not funny, but random animal S&M violence is!

Number 7 : Shakugan no Shana Second Ep 03

rofl

Number 6 : Clannad Ep 04

Tomoya: Why are Tomoyo and Youhei getting more screen time than me?!
Youhei: Cause I have the hots for Tomoyo
Tomoyo: … all you need to do is give your good friend an asskicking and you’ll get loads of screen time, like me

“CHAINNNNN COMBO!”

Number 5 : Minami-Ke Ep 02

Chiaki: Shut up, fool
Makoto: I’m no fool! I’m the idiotic child!

Number 4 : Clannad Ep 04

The whole “Tech me how to talk to the hot girl that I think is a guy” scene made me lol.
But the bowling one was especially funny.

Number 3 : Minami Ke Ep 02

lol @ Ayako sub
“This is a story about hot yuri sex between three entirely blood-unrelated sisters … you wish. Get your fapping materials elsewhere. Also, worship my teardrop mouth and my leaf-shaped ahoge, or I’ll whip you good.”

Number 2 : Naruto Ep 32

lolololol… wtf

Number 1 : Clannad Ep 04

LOL I don;t understand why he had the sudden urge to stick a straw up her nose!!!!! (I sure hope he doesn’t drink that juicebox later)

This will be either hit-or-miss in USA, but I’m actually thinking hoping it will do reasonably well. (Just cause I like to poke fun at LS doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy watching it =/)

Yakitatte Japan! Shana style~

Shakugan no Shana Second – Ep 02

Once again… crappy storyline but I don’t know why I like watching Shana so much =( Truthfully, I enjoy Shakugan no Shanatan more… which is kinda sad. Speaking of which~ Shakugan no Shanatan movie is out har…

Flame Haze at work


PoteMayo – Eps 03 – 12

Ahh what can I say about this… Boy finds some wierd but cute thing in his fridge one day and names her Potemayo… after Potato and Mayonnaise …. HOW AWESOME IS THAT!? As a whole the series was quite good :

• + Each episode split into 2 segments where each segment is one story. As much as I enjoy randomness in my comedy, its also nice to (kinda) have a plot =P
• + Random violence is always good
• + “How do you make something that’s gotten big smaller” So much for rated PG! (that’s if all the violence didn’t tip you off already)
• + Not too many “make reference to some anime/current event” gags. There were some… but not many at all.
• - Sometime episodes were really good and some were just really boring
• - Should of had more Nene x Muttan (or Mudo depending on who’s subs you watch) master x slave relationship. “Hey what’s in this (really heavy) backpack anyways?” “Rocks”

EF – A tale of memories – Ep 01-02

This was kinda confusing. 3 different storylines; I’m hoping they all somehow converge somewhere. And the random effects were… strange. If you watched Ep 2 and thought it was “wtflolbbq” confusing you are not alone… but very interesting ending in ep 2 so I’ll keep at it for now.

Psychedelic!~The only good part about this episode was the last 10 seconds

He really needs a haircut…

KimiKiss Pure Rouge – Ep 01-02

Looks interesting only because its not typical harlem .. at least for now! I’ll keep watching and see how it goes. But I thought it was kinda stupid how the main character couldn’t recognize the girl after not seeing her for 2 years. If it was like 5 or 10 years… maybe >.> but 2? Goodness you need some glasses!
